The Leader in PAS solutions but needs improvement in granular customizations
What do you like best about the product?
It's a full-featured solution with numerous third-party integrations. Tools such as the DNA scans help provide visibility to organizations on how badly a PAS solution is needed but also helps to provide the information needed to prioritize which accounts need to be protected first.
What do you dislike about the product?
The solution is complex and requires professional services to just deploy the solution. Although documentation is provided to deploy in-house, it is sometimes spotty and requires knowledge of the product to properly deploy based on your environment. Any upgrades to new versions and any changes to the architecture requires professional services as well. And there isn't much resources to help identify your use cases other than the obvious ones. As you implement the solution, new use cases will probably pop up and may require changes that you won't be able to do in-house.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CyberArk PAS helps us secure our most privileged accounts. It also helps to automatically rotate passwords and securely store them in the vault. It can also store other passwords and may eliminate the need for a separate password management solution but that is based on your company's use case.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to take into account all the use cases you can think of BEFORE evaluating a solution. Talk to your stakeholders and the different teams that would be affected by this. Make sure you have full organizational buy-in from the top down so everyone knows what changes to expect.

Cyber Ark review
What do you like best about the product?
For PAS application: That it's easy to scale and have redundancy; simply add another server behind your load balancer. For EPM: It’s highly adjustable and flexible, can be tailored for large ranges of uses.
What do you dislike about the product?
For PAS Application: The CPM component is not easily to scale. This, however, is a minor point. For EPM Application: * Performance issues with large deployments. Requests could repeatedly fail or refuse to execute at all when dealing with large pool of data. For example reports sometimes just refuse to generate. * Creation of computer groups with 57k machines is nearly impossible, because system just doesn’t record creation or modification of a group. According to documents solution should easily handle 100k endpoints, but even half of this number gives it a pause.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been deploying CyberArk to address the needs of managing secrets into our applications, and then after strong adoption by our R&D team, it has been pushed into production and infrastructure. The solution is addressing all our needs, and cover future expectations such as managing selective remote access (Vendor - Alero) or our move to IaaS with Conjur, or SaaS for Corporate Applications (PSM for Cloud)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Privilege management activity is a big task in an organization. It should be sized well, and staged objectives needs to be defined. Managing all privileges accounts is a wide deployment in a large IT environment, and it takes times and resources. The human factor is therefore more important than the technology. Cyberark is a great technology but a lot of change management is required.

We are solving app control for each clients.
Perfect solution for Enterprise Privileged Access Management(PAM)
What do you like best about the product?
Cyberark is the most complete and features rich solution which I have used to date when it comes to Privileged Access Management(PAM). The access can be granted at a very granular level as well. The integration with Active Directory(AD) is a huge bonus to maintain all the IDs of the employees of an enterprise and what level of security is given to them on various fronts.
It has been working very well for us because we have never ever seen a hacking incident or identity theft or eves dropping happening in the enterprise from the time we have introduced Cyberark.

What do you dislike about the product?
The website is not the fastest and it takes time to load ans sometimes even after you have verified your credentials, it still times out. This is something which I will like to see an improvement upon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cyberark has been a real success story for us because we have integrated all the users and FRAM servers with Cyberark. OS, the password gets changed automatically and only the admin has the access to see the credentials of those FARM servers and login only in case of any issues occur.
The clients are at much more ease now that we have Cyberark into the picture. It has really helped to grow our business by making it more secure and available too.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Password management controlling amd securing issues
One of the best credential storage tools available in market
What do you like best about the product?
CyberArk's privileged security is top notch and one of the best possible Account Security Solutions available currently in the market . Its enhanced security helped us to gain confidence among lot of our customers and most people are astonished at the level of privacy/security we use in our applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing as such, But my only concern would be the pricing strategy . I think if pricing can be decreased a bit. it can reach to all customers . As most small organizations cannot afford to purchase such tools, even though they want their applications to be highly secured.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used it in majority of our processes for enhanced security . Generally one can make use of windows credential manager or inbuilt security with in an application to store credentials but none of this methods work when there is a network breach or firewall breach . CyberArk has an algorithm to generate a dynamic password which will be in sync with our application so that only the two parties can handshake . This provides enhanced security as the password is no where exposed to outside world . Being a dynamic password compared to that of a traditional windows credential type of password it cannot be guessed or cracked by any hacking tools in the market . That's the real power of CyberArk .
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I definitely recommend it to every organisation which gives atmost importance to their customer centric processes with no compromise in quality . As Cyber Ark is one of the best solutions for enhanced security in the market .

Some of these options you have so many for no reason at all. The fact that I need my RSA to log into it is annoying as I have to wait for the numbers to change.

Many many virtual smart card issues, I use it to create those smart cards, to unlock them when they're locked out and many more admin stuff
